Paolo Bacigalupi Quotes
Her Father Would Return From China. He'd Come Back With All His Soldiers. He'd Pick Her Up In His Strong Arms And Say That He'd Never Meant To Leave, That He Hadn't Meant To Sail Away And Leave Her And Her Mother Alone In The Canals Of The Drowned Cities As The Army Of God And The UPF And The Freedom Militia Came Down Like A Hammer On Every Single Person Who'd Ever Trafficked With The Peacekeepers. A Stupid Little Dream For A Stupid Little War Maggot. Mahlia Hated Herself For Dreaming It. But Sometimes She Curled In On Herself And Held The Stump Of Her Right Hand To Her Chest And Pretended That None Of It Had Happened. That Her Father Was Still Here, And She Still Had A Hand, And Everything Was Going To Get Better.
